My Name is Jack

Here is the actual book; my "first-born", my baby. I wrote it while holding my godson in Chicago and drew the pictures back in Florida (except for the ones my children drew for the book). His name of course, is Jack. I'm working on the second book with the working title, "My Name is Jack and it's Christmas Today".

My name is Jack and I was born today.

I've waited so long and now I'm ready to play.






But what shall I do and what should I be?






The world is so big, so open, so free.






Why I'll bounce on the clouds in a hot air balloon.






I'll grow so tall that I'll tickle the moon.






I'll race wild horses in the hot desert sands.







I'll study music and lead a big band.






I don't really know what I'll do or be.






Only that Mommy and Daddy will always love me.
(Illustrators: Iszabella-Esperanza and Sofia Katherine Stuart)
